Sore throat and other symptoms

Hi Everyone,  AND Teak and Lizzie
Two weeks ago i had gone to a gay sauna out of curiosity, i need not do any oral or anal sex. No one touched my penis. My left hand got covered in lot of sperm which was there on the chair. I have been looking at Internet since that day for possible symptoms of ARS. Now after 2 weeks I  have developed sore throat, muscle aches and two red dots on side of my chest. I am full of fear, guilt and anxiety. Please help what was my risk of acquiring HIV.
